component context → Building Boost

bjam --without-context --without-coroutine should not build boost.context nor boost.coroutine - if the libraries are still build then this is an issue of boost build system

FWIW, this is a bit complicated to explain exactly which library is build due to what dependencies to be intuitive in all cases, and it's not a very big issue, so I probably won't get to this in near future.

boost.coroutine depends on boost.context

I attempted to build Boost 1.60, using both --without-context and --without-coroutine. It turns out to build Boost.Context anyway.

Workaround: also use --without-coroutine2.

This is still an issue as of 1.63
